Not only does driving around on backroads make me love Iowa more, Robert and I always find great little places or random roads that just scream beautiful. I'm a sucker for good scenery, stick me in the middle of the forest and I'll ask you for a camera to capture it all.

The gathered sleeve on this sweatshirt is what caught my attention. In a sea of sweaters, this one had a little edge to it. Not to mention it's super comfortable and easy to wear. Perfect for those family days or a day full of running errands.

As scary as it may sound, Christmas is right around the corner! I love the food and family on Thanksgiving just as much as the next person, but shopping early is smart. I already have a good handful of my shopping done, and hell I already started wrapping these gifts! The sooner I get it done the better I feel because I can relax and not stress. Below are a few of my Christmas picks, just to help you kick start that shopping if you haven't already!

p.s. snow is in the forecast and I cant decide if I'm happy or terrified.

The wind made it impossible to wear my hair down, but that didn't stop my from wearing sandals one last time before it dropped in temperature. I got these sandals on an amazing steal and couldn't pass them up. Yeah they may sit in my closet for a few months because of the weather, but hell I don't mind.

The simplicity of this outfit is a great representation of how busy my work and school life is. I just can't wait for the holidays to be over and school to be done. I happily graduate this semester and I cannot wait. It's definitely bittersweet since it's been my life for the past five years but I'm ready for change. Change sure is good.
